King Alexander III died without a direct heir, the throne Of Scotland passed to his seven year old granddaughter, Margaret of Norway. She died en route to Scotland for her coronation. The nobility of Scotland turned to King Edward I of England to judge between the various claimants to the throne. Edward choose John Balliol as the next king, and forced Balliol to act as his puppet. Balliol eventually rebelled against Edward, this failed and Edward forced him to abdicate, and assumed power over Scotland himself. This lead to the wars of Independence, firstly under Wallace and Murray, and latterly under Robert The Bruce.
